TAKEAWAYS

Not every open door is your door.

Discernment is the difference between false opportunity and divine opportunity.

You can work hard and still see nothing.

The devil is a master manipulator.

Sometimes it's not about doing more, it's about discernment.

The longer you wait, the more desperate you feel.

Impatience costs us everything.

You could be planting in a place that wasn't meant to produce your harvest.

What is for me will not require force.

You have to grow into a thing when GOD calls us to a place.
